Chapter 237: Cheap or Not
Chapter 237: Cheap or Not
"I think the younger son is a bad boy, just like Tongtong who can't speak. I have a clear eye for it."
One day, Zhou's father and mother were walking down the street with their daughter Yuanyuanman. She said the same thing. When she saw them, she acted as if she didn't see them.
Zhou's mother was so angry that she was about to rush forward, but was stopped by Zhou's father, who shook his head at her.
They don't want children outside to see it and cause any bad influence.
Now that I have children, I have to set a good example.
But they let Chai's mother go, but Chai's mother didn't necessarily let them go. She turned around and stood in front of the two of them, twisting the Buddhist beads in her hand, and said with a fake smile, "Oh, isn't this my former in-law who didn't show any mercy at all?"
"Alas, I have a miserable life. They say that God is merciful, but I can't fight human nature." She cried as she spoke, "Even if we get divorced, that was a matter of the last life. What does it have to do with the child? Poor thing, you won't even let me see my own granddaughter!"
"Granddaughter? How ridiculous! When you two were still together, you never came once in three years. Now that we're divorced, you're rushing to see her. Just tell me if you're cheap or not!"
Zhou's mother put her hands on her hips. Although she hadn't scolded Zhou Jingmo recently, the skills her son had cultivated over the years were not fake.
Chai's mother's face turned red and she kept stamping her feet. She only knew how to pretend to cry and act pitiful. It was all thunder without rain. When it came to scolding, how could she be a match for Zhou's mother, a professor of Chinese?
Zhou's mother would scold her for three days and three nights without repeating herself.
Mother Chai didn't want to make herself look bad, so she put on airs and said, "Humph, I'm a vegetarian and I don't want to bother with you."
As she spoke, she twisted the Buddhist beads that she had rubbed until they turned white.
Mother Zhou sneered, "You haven't changed this bead for a long time, it seems your son doesn't treat you very well..."
As she spoke, she raised her wrist, revealing a huge gold bracelet as thick as a bowl. It was so sparkling that it blinded everyone's eyes.
Chai's mother's heart was pierced like a sieve.
I think she had a good life in the past. Tongtong was raised by the Zhou family, Zhou Zhixi supported herself, and her son had a good salary as a doctor, and he gave a lot of it to her. But now, her salary is so low, and she has to support a burden.
"So, stop showing off your gold. You have too much and you show it off everywhere. You don't do good deeds for your children. Tongtong and your little grandson won't say anything."
"idiot."
"..." Mother Chai looked around blankly, "What's that sound?"
Zhou's father and mother lowered their heads in surprise and looked at the child who made the sound.
His childish eyes and eyebrows look very much like Zhou Jingmo, and he looks annoyed.
No one would have thought that the first complete and clear sentence he said would be this. Don't ordinary children usually use some reduplicated words?
How could you say such profound words?
"Yes... this little kid said that."
"This isn't a fool, this is a genius, right?"
"That's right. His father Jing Mo has been very smart since he was young, and his mother is also the top student in Central South University. The children born to such talented people will only be smarter."
Yuanyuan beside him didn't quite understand what was being said, but she knew that they were all praising her brother, so she clapped her hands and smiled with dimples, just like her mother, very sweet.
He stood there coolly with his brows furrowed and his hands in his overalls pockets.
It's not that he can't speak, he's just too lazy to speak.
He also knew that when he was born, he almost scared the doctors and nurses to death, because they thought he would not cry, and he was just too lazy to cry.
He is just pure laziness.
"Grandma, you better shut up."
He even spoke complete sentences clearly. Everyone's eyes widened. This proved that he was a genius.
As soon as Zhou's mother returned home, she excitedly imitated what Manzai had just done and said to everyone.
She just looked grim, "Idiot!"
He imitated Manzai and said, "Grandma, you better shut up."
Manzai sat on the child chair, eating tomatoes speechlessly. His little, tender hands holding the red tomatoes made him look even cuter.
"Hahaha, you are so good at swearing. Follow me! Follow me! I have someone to take over."
The happiest person was Zhou's mother, who was so excited that she danced with joy.
Ji Ning: "..."
It's probably not a good idea to have a successor like this, right?
Ji Ning returned to the room and they took a shower together. Zhou Jingmo wiped Ji Ning's hair. He was already very skilled at it and chatted with her while wiping.
"Manman really looks like me when I was a kid."
"When you were a child?" Ji Ning suddenly became interested and turned back to look at him with blinking eyes. It was rare for her to hear Zhou Jingmo talk about his childhood stories. The more she loved someone, the more she wanted to know about him...
Zhou Jingmo hooked his lips, put the towel aside, and chatted with Ji Ning about his childhood. "Because I used to think ahead of time, I also thought that children of my age were childish and boring. Children's bodies are small, but they still yearn for friends. However, I would feel irritated for no reason, and I didn't want to, and had no patience to listen to what they said or played games. Over time, I got used to playing by myself."
"Oh?" Ji Ning lay on the side, supporting her soft jaw with both hands, and took the peeled grapes handed over by Zhou Jingmo, her lips soaked with moisture, "It seems that being too smart is not a good thing."
"Indeed..." Zhou Jingmo's eyes suddenly became profound. "Until later, I met Han Baoyi and Pei Qingrong. They would patiently accept all my impatience and pull me into the crowd again and again. I know that even if my brain did not accept them, I already regarded them as friends in my heart."
Ji Ning listened quietly, with a grape in each cheek, bulging like a little hamster stockpiling goods, "Next time I will thank Baoyi and Pei Qingrong."
"why?"
"Thank you for taking good care of you before I showed up." Ji Ning blinked, looking innocent, "What I love most is the you of the present. The people or things you met made you become the lively Zhou Jingmo you are now."
Zhou Jingmo nodded, hugged her in his arms, held her arms tightly, and his fingertips trembled slightly.
Ji Ning patted him, "Don't worry, your son will not be like you. Regardless of whether there is redemption like Pei Qingrong and Baoyi, he will grow up smoothly. He has already had your precedent, and with your experience, he will definitely be safe and smooth."
"Yeah." After hearing her words, Zhou Jingmo was completely relieved.
That whole night, the two chatted about their childhood until very late, and Zhou Jingmo also learned about the many difficulties Ji Ning had gone through.
Ji Wei has always envied Ji Ning, who chose life in the city and eventually became a winner in life.
But in fact, no one has a smooth life.
